“There’s a folding chair by the water and there
I think you sit and laugh and feel a love so rare.
There’s ice around your island, you’ve got your skates,
There goes a boy whose beauty never fades.
You’re playing a game, don’t even feel cold,
There plays a boy who’ll never grow old.
You’re everything you wanted to be
You’re safe and happy, wild and free.”

“... Benji, probably knew deep down that he was never the sort of person who would get a happy ending. Obviously we still hoped. Dear God, how we hoped. Naive dreams are love's last line of defence, so somehow we always convince ourselves that no terrible tragedies will ever afflict those we love, and that our people will succeed in escaping fate.”
